To ensure that the watch functions properly, it is essential for it to have both service and a 4G data connection.
To verify if your watch receives sufficient service and data, power on your device, turn off WIFI and swipe down from the top of the main screen to the bottom.
If the watch is situated in an area with good coverage and your provider supports 4G in that area, you will observe the following symbols, confirming that connectivity has been established and everything is operating as expected:
If your watch doesn't display those symbols, try restarting it in an area with good coverage and check if the device starts showing a full signal bar and the 4G icon.
Lack of signal
If the signal bar remains empty, it indicates that there is no service in your current location, and the watch may regain functionality when moved to an area with better coverage. Keep in mind that coverage can vary significantly from one place to another and is typically better in open spaces.
If you are using the SIM-card that came with the watch, your plan is provided via the domestic T-Mobile network. Here you can check T-Mobile's LTE network coverage in your area.
Lack of data
If there is no 4G symbol, it could be due to some data restrictions, such as the absence of 4G coverage in your area or having reached the user's monthly data limit.
